“I tend to agree with the guy who said diplomacy is the art of saying ‘nice doggie’ until you can find a rock.”
Eric Thomson, Like Stars in Heaven

“Why is it I think you’re lying, Brigid?” “Because you spent your entire life surrounded by liars and can’t fathom the concept of honesty? Or honor and integrity. Or any other attribute of a good officer.”
